#472I'm not up to speed with US regulations, but the design seems very dangerous for pedestrian collisions. A sharp and hard shell must be very harmful, even at low speeds.

#473I genuinely had to double check my calendar to make sure it wasn’t April 1st. I love the fact that Tesla are moving away from the boring, middle of the road designs of their previous models. But this.... this is just hideous. It doesn’t look tough or futuristic; it looks like something a 10 year old designed, and no, that’s not a good thing.
Under the "Versatile Utility" heading, the third set of text refers to "the ability to pull near infinite mass".

#474is this safe? modern cars are designed to absorb impact and not transfer it to passengers. this sounds like it is a rigid metal car like a vw beetle

#475Happy the GPU which will have to render that in the next Gran Turismo.

#476I feel like I am taking crazy pills with the amount of good sentiment to this design. This thing is absolutely fugly. The guys over at Rivian must be having a party right now.
>This thing is absolutely fugly.
Fugly is in the eye of the beholder. To me this is an outstanding design, with crazy cool cyberpunk inspiration, and finally a fucking bold design move -- 99% of cars looking the same shit, even sports cars like Lamborginis sticking to the same designs since the 80s...
I've had to see such an interesting take since the DeLorean....

Ten bucks says this thing has never seen a wind tunnel, which is strange for something that's meant to be energy efficient

Whether you like it or hate it, you have to take your hat off to the Tesla marketing department. This thing is a meme on wheels.
_Everyone_ is going to see this, have an opinion on it, and want to know what everyone else's opinion on it is.

#480As a truck guy who has owned a lot of trucks and currently owns a 2017 Ram 2500 CTD 4x4 and a Land Rover Defender 110, I'm telling you right now: this is going to kill it. This is the suburban status item of 2022. I want to buy this right now. This has nearly the towing capacity of my Ram and will smoke my wife's Audi on the track.
Do people in the rural/suburban US really tow that much that often? Seeing the number of trucks just doesn’t make sense (especially given how few are towing anything). Is there a little measure of lifestyle signaling or macho involved in truck ownership, or towing capacity comparison?
Its like asking if people in US really shoot to defend themselves that often?
